Guys, I have a question.
I have a work ex of only 4 years (as of july 2015). Is that a disadvantage for IIMB EPGP?
Second Query
I resigned from my previous job on 15th May 2015 and joined the new organisation on 23rd May 2015. In the employment section when I am entering the two job profiles with the dates of duration as mentioned above it is showing the following error
Work Experience Year/Month Overlaps, please verify the data entered.
Same error is being shown even if I enter the date of joining in the new company as june 2015. Kindly suggest what should I do
Is there any whatsapp group EPGP 2016 ?
can you please add me there too ?

Hello, this is a question to the IIMB EPGP representative on PagalGuy.
I am targetting to finish applications for the 2016~17 round by August 31st. My GMAT exam is scheduled for August 22nd so i doubt whether i will be able to submit AWA scores or whether the official scores would have reached IIMB by then. Would a scanned copy of the unofficial test scores suffice ?
Thanks and regards

Hello,
In the brochure it is mentioned that the Application Deadline for Round 2 is Nov 30, 2015 - My question to you is if i can submit my application online in the month of October or early November? Or is there any specific cut off date for online submission? Please let me know.
Dear @EGPG_iimb How much does the International work ex counts in the admissions? For example I have no international work ex, does that decrease my chances of making it to the course?
@EPGP_IIMB
As per admission information the work ex requirement for the program is at least 4 years as on 31/03/2016. I am my case, I will be short of one month and 23 days. I joined my organisation as Assistant Manager on 24/05/2012 and will be having work ex of 46 months and 6 days, instead of 48 months.
Therefore, you are requested to advise the way out, if any.

Hi guys .. Thanks for taking out time and helping prospective students with all sorts of queries. Really appreciate your efforts in making this such an informative forum.
It would be great if you could help me clarify the following:
By what time do we have to accept offers and pay the first installment for both R1 and R2.
Moreover are the chances of getting an admit largely reduced if one applies in R2 or both rounds have same seat allocation?
What is the ratio of NO. of ppl who apply and No of Seats Available ?
